​​Traffic safety policy

CFL cargos traffic safety policy emphasises that the transport safety efforts to protect people’s lives and health are a very high priority in our daily actions. Through planned work and the follow-up of our activities, we will, together with infrastructure administrators as well as other agents on the market, create a foundation for continuous safety improvement in order to avoid all types of railway accidents.

​Before making any changes to our operations and traffic schedules, we will make a thorough safety assessment, including any necessary risk analyses.

We will analyse accidents and incidents, and take appropriate corrective measures to prevent any recurrence. Through meticulous follow-up of our actions, we learn from experience. Traffic safety is always on the agenda at meetings with our own staff as well as with external partners.

As we operate trains on the infrastructure owned by the Swedish Transport Administration but operated and maintained by other agents, we will seek agreement with these to ensure that there are no risks within the shared space, and that the lines of communication and the responsibilities are made clear.

Within CFL cargos organisation, thoroughly defined responsibilities and short lines of communication must be in place to ensure that safety risks can be swiftly reported and subsequently eliminated. Staff working for CFL cargo Sverige AB should be well acquainted with the applicable traffic safety regulations and have a thorough understanding of the importance of following these regulations. The entire staff should also be familiar with this traffic safety policy and be aware of our safety goals. Adhering to the laws and regulations pertaining to traffic safety should follow naturally.
